    Compliance due diligence on Experience Cloud, five client implementations from one configurable codebase. Support tickets fell to under a tenth of the legacy system; due diligence cycles run 40 to 50% shorter.

  • Data Residency for Regulated Records

    Country-level data residency on Experience Cloud, live in China. We designed both sides: the Salesforce components and the residency service the client hosts in its own cloud.

Team Experience

  • Sales Cloud and CPQ Console for a Global Publishing Company

    A daily call list built from priority and callback dates, click-to-dial from the console, outcomes logged in the utility bar, and the opportunity and quote created from the last order when a call goes well. Reps handled substantially more contacts per day, by the client's own account.

    Sales Cloud, CPQ, RingCentral, United States
  • Loan Application Portal for a Lender to Healthcare Practitioners

    Applicants, co-borrowers and five internal teams working a staged application, with credit bureau, KYC, eligibility, bank verification and third-party loan integrations. Loan processing time roughly halved.

    Team Experience
    Experience Cloud (LWR), Customer Community licences
  • Partner and Supplier Portal on Service Cloud

    Categories by user type and region, cases from the portal and by email, regional queues, SLA milestones that pause while the customer is asked for information, two-stage escalation. Six developers and two QA to release in four months.

    Team Experience
    Experience Cloud, Service Cloud, US and EMEA
  • Test Management Migration from Micro Focus ALM to Jira

    Hundreds of heavily customised projects with fifteen years of history, millions of records and terabytes of attachments, moved with a purpose-built engine that reconstructed audit traceability. Three pilots, then waves by business unit, with the legacy licence bill retired.

    Team Experience
    7,500+ users, Python, Jira Data Center
  • DevOps Toolchain on EKS for a 20,000-Person Engineering Organisation

    Jira, Confluence, GitLab, Nexus and SonarQube consolidated as tenants on one highly available platform with single sign-on. Upgrades without maintenance weekends and a run cost roughly a third lower.

    Team Experience
    Amazon EKS, three availability zones
  • On-Premises Kubernetes Platform with Automated Upgrades

    A 57-node cluster running hundreds of microservices on the client's own hardware, with an idempotent upgrade pipeline that moves a version in an afternoon with no downtime, run by a team of six.

    Team Experience
    kubeadm, Cilium, everything as code
  • AWS Well-Architected Reviews and Resilience Remediation

    Framework reviews for a UK telecommunications provider, followed by the remediation work the reviews called for.
